    Take a virtual ride on Prowler, a wooden roller coaster at Worlds of Fun.
    Prowler debuted at Worlds of Fun in 2009 and was later named "World's Best New Ride" by Amusement Today. Known for its terrain-hugging track, this adrenaline-pumping ride features 3,074 feet of track, a maximum height of 102-feet, a drop of 84.9 degrees and reaches speeds that exceed 50 mph.
    ProTip: Be sure to take a ride on this roller coaster at night. With the dark forest engulfing the track, you're in for a treat!

    Worlds of Fun is such an underrated park, I feel like one more big roller-coaster would push it over the top.

    Prowler is actually one of the most fun, and best designed, wooden coasters in the world. And I’ve ridden most all of the well known ones. It puts an enormous smile on my face the whole time. Long live the Prowler.

      Joe Smith, how about a retracking or so rework at least, this ride has gotten noticeably worse in the last 3 years... the layout is very unique and fun, but not when you feel like you just got the shit kicked out of you.

    • @joesmith389
      @joesmith389 4 года назад +6

      Kevin Stanza I just rode it 5 hours ago, and it’s a little rougher than it used to be, but not bad at all compared to all other woodies. People sometimes relate quick directional changes (an integrated design of the ride) to being rough. But it’s quite smooth when you anticipate the sudden turns. I really love it. I actually really like that “shit kicked outta you” feeling, but I’m an old school Arrow Development guy. If it doesn’t hurt a bit, then it’s not intense enough 😉. That’s just me. If you think Prowler is getting a bit to intense you, you can always opt to ride near the front of the train where it’s much less intense.

      @@joesmith389 it's definitely got a great design and the idea of staying low to the ground the entire time is super cool, but I have to agree that those whips are super jerky, not the fun kind like Mystic Timbers (also made by GCI). Some enthusiasts say there's a lot of airtime too but I only really noticed one point where I got any airtime. I still enjoy it for what it is, but I prefer Mamba or Patriot if I go to WoF.

      I agree, I live in Colorado and we've only got two woodies, this last year I rode Prowler for the first time as my first coaster in 2020. Since my home parks never opened. I was lucky enough to get thirteen rides on Prowler over two days, no regrets. Great woodie and glass smooth.

    This park isn't in my tops list yet but looking at their coaster collection, it really becomes noticeable in the 2010s that Cedar Fair stopped caring about it. CF really needs to address their lower tier parks in the 2020s.

    Had so much fun working at this fantastic GCI in 2020. Such a great ride and an awesome ride to work too. This is one of my favorite GCIs for sure, it’s got a great layout and great airtime and laterals and keeps its speed really well. I even prefer it to Mystic Timbers.

    • @lightfantastik
      @lightfantastik 3 года назад
